free wheelin'

This long weekend was the perfect weekend for bike riding. Nuno and I have started an annual ride from my parent's house in Welland, up the Welland Canal to our home in St. Catharines. It's a 26km ride, but doesn't feel very long since the canal path is beautifully paved to make riding easy. I should also mention that it's a downhill ride. Some of the best moments of the ride are coasting down the steep inclines of Lock 4 & 5. I haven't mentioned to Nuno yet, but I think I may want to ride from Port Colborne to St. Catharines in the next couple of weeks (40km).

the first humid weekend in June

Dispite the heat and humidity, Nuno and I have been jonesin' for a decent weekend to spend outdoors. We love to walk Hot Tot up and down the Welland Canal path almost daily. She loves it too because she gets to make tons of doggie friends.


Queenston was also very pretty this weekend. I'm so happy I had the opportuntiy to catch the alliums in bloom. I just love how they are planted beside the fountain.


Although we spent the majority of the weekend outside, we went to Shaun & Leslie's housewarming party. Their place is very bright and at an ideal location. We helped them move a month ago and it was great to see their place complete with all their rad collectibles organized on display. They threw a fun bash and we're really happy for them & their new palace.
